Flatonta's Efforts.

a number of the citizens of Fiatonia
assembled at the Justices offices on Sat
uTday to hear the report of committee
appointed to secure right of way, depot
grounds, etc for the Arkansas Pass Road.
The committee announced the probability
of easily securing the right of way
through the county, free to a great eX-
tent, and to be purchased over lands that
would be materially injured. The
committee to raise funds in
money or notes payable COndi-
tionally was at work on Saturday and
will still continue their labors. The Ar
gus would desire to impress upon the cit
liens two points-one, that line con-
Meeting with the Missouri Pacific road
would bring US freight on the same terms
by car load as are paid at Houston, thus
saving the freight by the Sunset route
from Houston to this place, boom in bus
mess, in real estate, and place our town
on permanent plane of progress and
prospeTitv-second,t that the line going
anywhere else except through FlatOnia,
will leave US like a ship stranded upon
the beach to rot away to nothingness by
the lapse of time. On the one side we
see the good we may gain and on the
other the loss we must sustain. Both
motives combined should have their eff
feet upon our merchants, capitalists and
real estate owners, not only in the city
but all along the line to make the m ac-
tive and energetic IN securing the road.
The people of Winchester have pledged
themselves to obtain the right of way
from the connection OF the San Antonio
and Arkansas Pass Road with the T. B.
and II Road TO the county line Veto

PROHIBITION IN MAINE
a statement Under Oath as to the Result

a statement Under Oath as to the Result
of the Law in Maine.
Aletter was written by the prohibition
executive committee OF this city abDnt
the last of April to Hon. Joseph R. Bod
well, Governor OF the state of MsIfIe,
asking sfor a certified statement, under
oath, offhe results and effects of the PRO
hibition law of that state.
The following reply and statement
came in response to that letter, the
original OtWhich Can be seen bpanyone
on calling upon the chairman OF the com
mittee. 81 ~
STATE OF MAINE, COUNCIL CHAMBER,
X augusta, May 10, 1887.
MY DEAR SIs-Yours of a late date to
our GovernorrHon. Joseph r.. Bedwell,
was handed me with Instructions to make
reply under oath.
According to the most reliable informa-
ton, will statethat under the working
of our prohibit0ry law every distillery
and brewery in the state has been closed;
that in more than one-half the towns in
the state the traffiesin Intoxicating liquor
has been entirely suppressed, and every
where restricted toEa comparatively few
secret groggerieS.
In 1880, the Latest figures l have at
hand on this pointfdh 80 persons in
this state paid the United States retail
liquor tax including drug stores,
and under recent act making
the payment OF sthe above named tax
prima facie evidence against all parties
paying the same, the Indications are that
the present limited sale offliquor in our
state will &c reduced to s;much smaller
compass. e
The general effect Of thelew has been
to pretty generally rid the rural districts
of dram shops and of centeriRg the trade
in the cities where it has been more
difficult te3enforce the law, buseven here
much less quantity is sold than for
merly under license. Betweens1s60 and
1880 onf state valuation for Snurpoes
of taxation rose from S162,000, 900
to S235,e00, 900, while on account5ef our
large Western emigration our population
increased only about 10000. This does
not include savings bank deposits.
What we consider one of the most
marked results of our prohibftery
law is the steady increase in the |
savings of our people. |
Since 1860 to the present time the de-
posts in our savings banks have In
creased from 81, 1885, 00 to over S37, 000g3
100 The depositors number over 114r4
BOO, ave raging one to each family, withj
In average deposit of S324.47, or in other
words an amount sufficient TO average
Sos to every man, woman and child in the
tate.
Business and trade sre in no way in
ured by prohibition, but on the contrary

theatrical than real, there being no

with patron Saint being entirely i'm

circumstance which led to his release is
